EFFECTS OF NUMBER AND LOCATION OF BINS ON PLASTIC RECYCLING AT A UNIVERSITYJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 43 Số 4 - Trang 711-715 - 2010
Ryan T. O'Connor, Dorothea C. Lerman, Jennifer N. Fritz, Henry B. Hodde
The proportion of plastic bottles that consumers placed in appropriate recycling receptacles rather than trash bins was examined across 3 buildings on a university campus. We extended previous research on interventions to increase recycling by controlling the number of recycling receptacles across conditions and by examining receptacle location without the use of posted signs. Manipulating...... hiện toàn bộ
THEORETICAL, PRACTICAL, AND SOCIAL ISSUES IN BEHAVIORAL TREATMENTS OF OBESITYJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 3-25 - 1979
Susan C. Wooley, Orland W. Wooley, Susan R. Dyrenforth
Although showing superior maintenance, behavioral treatments of obesity typically produce small weight losses at a decelerating rate. Rather than reflecting poor compliance with treatment, these findings are consistent with known compensatory metabolic changes that operate to slow weight loss and promote regain. Other problems associated with dieting include failure of caloric regulation, ...... hiện toàn bộ
A PARENT‐ADMINISTERED PROGRAM TO REDUCE CHILDREN'S TELEVISION VIEWINGJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 17 Số 2 - Trang 267-272 - 1984
David A. Wolfe, Maria Gentil Berger Corrêa Mendes, David C. Factor
A parent‐administered program to reduce television viewing of primary school‐aged children was tested on two boys and three girls from three different families who were heavy viewers of television. Children were given 20 unearned tokens each week by their parents, which they could exchange for up to 10 hours of viewing time. The child earned a gold token for viewing in accordance with the ...... hiện toàn bộ
USING A TOKEN‐ACTUATED TIMER TO REDUCE TELEVISION VIEWINGJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 18 Số 3 - Trang 269-272 - 1985
Leonard A. Jason
A child watching an excessive amount of T.V. was provided a behavioral program featuring a token‐actuated timer. Earned tokens were used to activate the T.V. for thirty‐minute periods. The token‐exchange system effectively reduced T.V. viewing and the reductions were maintained at two follow‐up points. The principal contribution of the study is the development and evaluation of an electron...... hiện toàn bộ
EFFECTS OF INDIVIDUALIZED VIDEO FEEDBACK COMBINED WITH GROUP PARENT TRAINING ON INAPPROPRIATE MATERNAL BEHAVIORJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 40 Số 4 - Trang 737-741 - 2007
Leah Phaneuf, Laura Lee McIntyre
The effects of adding individualized video feedback (IVF) to Webster‐Stratton's (2000, 2001) group‐based parent training program (GT) were evaluated using a multiple baseline design across four mother‐child dyads. During all phases of the study, inappropriate maternal behavior was recorded from videotapes of playtime with their preschoolers with developmental disabilities. Results suggeste...... hiện toàn bộ
Interview‐informed synthesized contingency analyses: Thirty replications and reanalysisJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 49 Số 3 - Trang 576-595 - 2016

The speed with which a functional analysis (FA) provides a convincing demonstration of the variables that influence problem behavior may be termed efficiency. Multiple FA formats have been developed to improve analytic efficiency while the c...... hiện toàn bộ
USING MODIFIED VISUAL‐INSPECTION CRITERIA TO INTERPRET FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS OUTCOMESJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 46 Số 1 - Trang 130-146 - 2013
Henry S. Roane, Wayne W. Fisher, Michael E. Kelley, Joanna Lomas Mevers, Kelly J. Bouxsein
AbstractThe development of functional analysis (FA) methodologies allows the identification of the reinforcers that maintain problem behavior and improved intervention efficacy in the form of function‐based treatments. Despite the profound impact of FA on clinical practice and research, questions still remain about the methods by which clini...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluating the boundaries of analytic efficiency and control: A consecutive controlled case series of 26 functional analysesJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 53 Số 1 - Trang 25-43 - 2020
Joshua Jessel, Rachel Metras, Gregory P. Hanley, Catherine Jessel, Einar T. Ingvarsson
We conducted this study to determine if the efficiency of the functional analysis could be improved without detrimental effects on control. In Experiment 1, we reanalyzed functional analyses conducted for the problem behavior of 18 children. We analyzed rates of problem behavior during the first 5 min and first 3 min of the original 10‐min sessions and evaluated if changes in the level of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Predictive validity and efficiency of ongoing visual‐inspection criteria for interpreting functional analysesJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 51 Số 2 - Trang 303-320 - 2018
Valdeep Saini, Wayne W. Fisher, Billie J. Retzlaff
Prior research has evaluated the reliability and validity of structured criteria for visually inspecting functional‐analysis (FA) results on a post‐hoc basis, after completion of the FA (i.e., post‐hoc visual inspection [PHVI]; e.g., Hagopian et al., 1997). However, most behavior analysts inspect FAs using ongoing visual inspection (OVI) as the FA is implemented, and the validity of applyi...... hiện toàn bộ
THE EFFECTS OF VIDEOTAPE MODELING AND DAILY FEEDBACK ON RESIDENTIAL ELECTRICITY CONSERVATION, HOME TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY, PERCEIVED COMFORT, AND CLOTHING WORN: WINTER AND SUMMERJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis - Tập 15 Số 3 - Trang 381-402 - 1982
Richard A. Winett, Joseph W. Hatcher, T. Richard Fort, Ingrid N. Leckliter, Susan Q. Love, Anne W. Riley, James F. Fishback
Two studies were conducted in all‐electric townhouses and apartments in the winter (N = 83) and summer (N = 54) to ascertain how energy conservation strategies focusing on thermostat change and set‐backs and other low‐cost/no‐cost approaches would affect overall electricity use and electricity used for heating and cooling, the home thermal environment, the perceived comfort of participants...... hiện toàn bộ
